So this week I really found some interesting WTC coins up for sales on Ebay, these coins are different and from different sellers but they are both at no reserve auctions my favorite auction form as you know somebody will get the great WTC coins at a market price.

So the first coin set I want to show you guys are the 1 of 1000 coin series, I have seen it may times on Ebay around the $1,000 level but maybe in a no reserve auction the prices will be a little better and somebody can get a deal on this set.

The other very interesting No reserve auction I see this week on Ebay are the following mistake label from PCGS, at most I would say its fun to have both different 1991 labels of the $1 silver eagle from the WTC, but that is for the very dedicated collector. The other thing is the 1991 wtc silver eagle that is not found that often to begin with. So for that reason its a fun auction up at no reserve.

As we all know there where found many different $1 silver eagles at the WTC, the correct number of different silver eagles are 21 different WTC silver eagles to collect, it was Tony from the UK I think that pointed that out to me in a comment on one of my post. So 21 different eagles from 6 different years. When I saw different eagles we would count that the year 2001, has a 10 different types. The Gem Uncirculated, MS 68, MS 69. and then we have the eagles in the numbered sets like 1 of 190 etc total of 7 different numbered sets with an 2001 eagle in them.

So to collect all the 21 different silver eagles out there, you would have to get silver eagles from broken up sets of coins and all the eagles from the regular years. I would say the 1 of 12 with the gold bar and the silver eagle is probably the hardest one to get as there are only 12 pieces of that coin.

This is a nice collection of 2001 MS69 WTC coins, you would only need the $50 gold coin for a very nice MS69 set of WTC coins. The WTC 2001 $50 gold coin would probably set you back another $5000-$6000 but still.

This set of 4 coins are up on Ebay for $3,950 and I think its a good price. Auction link

A guy posted this picture of a $20 Gold Coin melted with 3 silver coins during the 1906 San Francisco Fire. The date of the gold coin cannot be read but the silver coins melted to the Gold coin during the fires in 1906 in San Francisco. This is just to give people on here an idea of what the fire can do to coins. The WTC coins where in a vault on only some of the coins has visible damage from the heat, but nothing like this coin.

I have gotten a few email about the gold coins and the silver coins and where they came from. A lot of people writing me wants to know, why all this gold and silver was located in the world trade center. I always send them an email back with the research that I have done that is located here. http://www.wtc911coins.com/topics/research-comdex-vault/

This will explain everything and it will show you the news paper clips from the time the gold was found. The bullion coins came from the bank of Nova Scotia where they where store at their vault.
